ALL roads will lead to Skipton on Wednes­


day when for four days the famous North Yorkshire market town stages its second annual Trades Fair. Once again the venue


is the imposing and im­ pressive Town Hall at the top of the High Street. Hundreds of people


from near and far are expected to flood into the popular market town and visit the fair, and they wall be able to sup­ port some 40 stands rep­ resenting the very best of local businesses and o th e rs from fu r th e r afield. Forward-looking Skip-


ton Chamber of Trade is organising the four-day event and members are hoping that it will be just as successful as last year’s first fair.
